# Phase 5 Plan 02: Error Hardening & Credential Migration Summary
|
|
|
|
**Terse error messages ("Cannot connect to Docker", "Failed to X Y") and user ID moved to n8n credentials system**
|
|
|
|
## Performance
|
|
|
|
- **Duration:** 3 min
|
|
- **Started:** 2026-02-01T02:12:51Z
|
|
- **Completed:** 2026-02-01T02:15:32Z
|
|
- **Tasks:** 2
|
|
- **Files modified:** 1
|
|
|
|
## Accomplishments
|
|
- All Docker socket errors now show "Cannot connect to Docker" (4 locations)
|
|
- Action failures show "Failed to {action} {container}" without verbose details
|
|
- User ID removed from workflow JSON - now uses `$credentials.telegramAuth.userId`
|
|
- Workflow can be safely exported and shared without exposing sensitive data
|
|
|
|
## Task Commits
|
|
|
|
Each task was committed atomically:
|
|
|
|
1. **Task 1: Standardize error messages** - `cab0914` (chore)
|
|
2. **Task 2: Migrate user ID to credentials** - `1e6c31f` (feat)
|
|
|
|
## Files Created/Modified
|
|
- `n8n-workflow.json` - Updated error messages and auth node credential references
|
|
|
|
## Decisions Made
|
|
- **Terse error format:** "Failed to {action} {container}" without HTTP codes or technical details
|
|
- **Docker socket errors:** Unified to "Cannot connect to Docker" message
|
|
- **Credential naming:** `telegramAuth` credential type with `userId` field (per RESEARCH.md pattern)
|
|
- **Removed switch/case error handling:** All action errors now use single terse message
|
|
|
|
## Deviations from Plan
|
|
|
|
None - plan executed exactly as written.
|
|
|
|
## Issues Encountered
|
|
|
|
None
|
|
|
|
## User Setup Required
|
|
|
|
**External services require manual configuration.** During deployment:
|
|
|
|
1. Create "Telegram Auth" credential in n8n:
|
|
- Type: Header Auth (or generic credential)
|
|
- Name: `Telegram Auth`
|
|
- Field: `userId` = your Telegram user ID
|
|
|
|
2. After importing workflow, map credentials:
|
|
- `Telegram API` -> your bot token credential
|
|
- `Telegram Auth` -> your user ID credential
|
|
|
|
## Next Phase Readiness
|
|
- Error messages production-ready (terse, user-friendly)
|
|
- Workflow exportable without sensitive data
|
|
- Ready for Plan 03: Deployment README
